Quotes by Joel Ohman  (?)

“He couldn’t change the past, and he couldn’t control the future. But he would beat the present into submission.”
Joel Ohman, Meritropolis

“The question everyone debated while we were underground was always something like, “What does it say about the System if it sanctions the killing of innocent life?” but I think the real question is, “What does it say about us, if we see it and do nothing?”
Joel Ohman, Meritropolis

“Funny how little things ignite the fuse and end up burning the fastest.”
Joel Ohman, Meritropolis
